Gavin Menzies, NY Times bestselling author of 1421 and now 1434 This scholarly and yet easy to read book is a major contribution to the early history of the Americas and the relations to China and other parts of Asia. There is much evidence that Chinese were in America before Columbus. Based on the rare Asian maps collection of her late father, Dr. Hendon M. Harris, the author has painstakingly researched, including using the resources of the Library of Congress, to present her findings that Chinese had indeed traveled by sea to the Americas since 2000 B.C. Dr. Hwa-Wei Lee, Retired Chief of Asian Div., Library of Congress Dean Emeritus, Ohio University Libraries Charlotte Harris Rees, true to her distinguished pioneer father Hendon, resumes affronting usually-bypassed primary evidence free of the 19th-century dogmas with refreshing skeptical common sense.
